Summary
Following a Housing Standards Commission review and receipt of a repair scope from the owner, Council issued an order requiring repairs to the substandard property at 1710 Austin St. within 90 days, citing the property's legal description WILLIAMS (LEV), BLOCK 3, LOT 6.
The Levelland City Council voted May 5 to issue an order to abate and repair the substandard structure at 1710 Austin St. by the owner within 90 days. Council considered the Housing Standards Commission's recommendation and the owner's submitted detailed scope of work and photographs before approving the order.
Eli Colunga presented the owner's scope of work and photos to the Council during the public hearing follow-up. "By recommendation of the Housing Standards Commission, a public hearing was held on January 28, 2025," the minutes state; staff had previously delayed action pending the owner's attempt to obtain financing. Bill Powell moved to issue the 90-day order and Jaime McCabe seconded; the motion carried unanimously.
Council’s order requires the owner to complete the specified repairs within 90 days or face further abatement or demolition orders, consistent with the Housing Standards Commission referral. The item was recorded as WILLIAMS (LEV), BLOCK 3, LOT 6 in the city's housing enforcement docket.
